Preparation

Bring MP Pots, Elixirs, Phoenix Down, Tent, Gold Needle and Remedy

Make sure your Healer is equipped with anti-Paralyze/Petrify/Confuse ACC

Instant KO. Will use Swallow on 2 units every 3 turns if damaged by Magic

Sinister Headbutt

230% ST Dark Physical Damage + 80% chance to inflict Disease (4 hits)

Release

400% Magic AoE , 100% Blind/Silence (5 hits)

Headrush

230% ST Physical + 50% chance to Paralyze (4 hits).

HP Thresholds

At 70%, 50%, and 30%, Abraxas will use Double Break Breath + Sinister Headbutt and End Turn. The next turn, Abraxas will use Release.

Keep Barblizzara and Barfira up to mitigate the damage from Double Break Breath

Keep DEF/SPR Up

Magic Attackers are not recommended unless you can kill it within 3 turns

Try not to use LB or Esper prevent Full Break

If you cannot kill it within 3 turns with your best party, bring along COD to help mitigate damage and cure status ailments.

Who to bring?

This event favors a Physical party as most Bosses are resistant to the basic Elements (except Dark and Holy). If your units are Mage heavy, bring along Mages with DC Ultima or Meteor capabilities.

Note: The 3 new banner units are actually good for the event.

Tank (1):

Cecil is your best option as he can help mitigate damage, Heal and cast Focus.

Healer (1):

Refia’s Embolden can help to quickly take down Bosses before they are able to attack. However, you will need to have a party of strong Physical Attackers to fully reap the benefits of Embolden.

Ling’s Dance of Life can help to cure all status ailments that are dealt on your team. However, do remember to equip an ACC with the ability to block Petrify and Paralyze.

Others – Luka and Tilith

Support (Optional):

Cloud of Darkness can help remove status ailments and buff elemental resistance to the team.

Attackers (2-3):

Noctis > Luneth > Gilgamesh > Randi > Your best Physical Attackers

Lightning is not preferred here (but I’m not saying she’s at the bottom of the list….) as she is better with her Elemental Attacks which in this event, will not see her full potential. However, if she’s your in your Best Attacker category, of course you use her duhz…

I beat it lightning exdeath randi refia Cecil and friend lightning. Im pretty sure you could use someone else instead randi because didn’t help much the final boss other than giving ethers to others. Just make sure always have def att mag and spr up with refi a and Cecil. Finally got that dual wield that 5% moogle. Super stoked!!!

Deep Blue, Rainbow Veil, and Provoke at the start of every fight. Then I just wailed on every boss with Warp Break, Point Warp, alternating Crushing Blow, and normal attacks (to fill limits). Reapply buffs, heal, and ether as needed.

With Cecil and Lightning providing off heals, only my Tilith died once during the last fight, and I immediately had her back to full with Comeback and Deep Blue.

Tillith and Luka were good calls. I used COD, Refia, Cecil, Ling, Luneth, and friend Noctis and omniveil almost wasn’t enough to make it through. Deep blue, while not offensive, is an awesome survivability ability. I think I may use her more during the longer fights.

A tad harsh. While I agree Randi is less than impressive, the fact that he is the only 6* attacker(to my knowledge) with a natural dragon killer passive would likely be why he was listed. His other killer passives would probably be helpful as well. Wasn’t one of the bosses considered a fairy creature?

i have seen japanese randis ( with enhancements to 1550 attack ) might not be great now but becomes a supreme beast. people playing japanese were like wow the literal worst 5* min character becomes one of the best.

True, but we don’t know when, or even if, that will ever happen in global. Gummi may decide to take a completely different path and, just for amusement, say, upgrade Shadow to a godlike 6 star instead of other units. Not likely, but…

Does a magic party have the survivability for the elite stage? My secondary game is mostly magic users. I do have Dark Fina and Exdeath with 528/444 magic respectively. My only physical are Bartz Chiz and Mercedes. I can put dual wield on one of them but that is the only real tm I have farmed.

Update: It worked using a defensive party of a dw dark fina 564 magic 4124 hp a cecil 459/5702 a refia 416/4401 a ling 3830 a tillith 2877/254 and a friend chiz with 4324/686. Obviously chiz and fina were my attackers while 3/4 healers support helped enormously if you’re not op.(The chiz is a little but not huge) Took my time and a TON of mp. Ling helped enormously in that respect besides debuff/raise/status.

It’s not great, but I’ve a 795 Luneth, armed with Excalibur. Pls msg me to tell me you’re from here. I get flooded with requests all the time and I don’t always bother.

Hey man, would you mind adding me for a few hours? I’ve only got one Noctis friend in my list and I just messed up against the final boss.. would be great to have your help 🙂
ID is 942 786 644. Thanks in advance
Main is usually 480 ATK Gilgamesh

Abraxas ELT was a pretty tough fight. I only have 2xDW farmed for TM. I ran with Cecil, 2x Chizuru (DW 530, DW 460), CoD (460 ATK), Refia, and Noctis friend (665 ATK). Got really close with Dark Fina (800 MAG) friend, but I messed up before a Release. Noctis’ Lightning Flask and Warp Break were pretty beast for the other fights.

Have you tried a less offensive party? One more support unit might do it. It would take longer and use more mp but might be worth trying. Swap out your secondary chiz(unless you are relying on the phantom shadow chaining effect?) for another support unit/healer and see how it goes. Worth a shot. I agree. Tough dang battle.

Need some assistance with this event if anyone can help. Here is my team:
6* Refia – 415 SP
6* Cecil – 530def / 6200hp
6* ExDeath – 500mag
6*CoD – 402 atk (mainly use for Omniveil, bar buffs, etc)
6* Lightning – 607atk with Excalibur
My only strong friend is now grinding Miyuki TM, so never has his Noctis on. I have gotten last boss down to about 20% health before dying. Just need a little attack boost to burn him down a round or two quicker. Thanks in advance!

Also, does anyone know if the last boss’ attacks have any triggers? Or is it all RNG?
